    Will be at BC resort may 2012 wondering if the walkway to epcot (brings you into WS, right?) is open when FW has am extra magic hours? Also, is walkway open all the time, like if we want to walk through epcot to get the monorail to MK, we will have PH? THX

    Hi Angela,

    The International Gateway entrance is open during early morning Extra Magic Hours so that guests staying at the Beach Club, Yacht Club, Boardwalk and WDW Swan and Dolphin resorts can enter Epcot via World Showcase.

    When entering, Cast Members will direct guests towards Future World unless they hold a reservation for Akershus Royal Banquet Hall in Norway.

    If you want to walk to the monorail, the International Gateway is open during Epcot's park hours. If you are the Magic Kingdom on an evening that the park is open late, make sure to check Epcot's hours before planning to return via monorail and walking through Epcot. Just be forewarned that Epcot is huge and the walk through there is very long. I would opt for a bus to the Magic Kingdom!

    The Beach Club is a lovely resort. Have fun!
